How hot does your mirror run?
-
I Have finished the script, I have a link to the git repo for it here https://git.serverforge.org:8082/Wered/rpi-mm-tempcontrol and i have installation instructions/Config guide here https://wiki.serverforge.org/index.php/Tempcontrol
-
@wered awesome thanks man! I’ll give it a shot tonight
-
@wered I can’t install rpi-temp or tempcontrol, says it can’t locate the packages. Would you mind checking if there’s something wrong on your end?
-
Mine gets very hot. I think it’s because of my old monitor. I actually had the heat affect my HDMI cable and had to replace it as my monitor kept cutting out.
-
@chieftainSupreme What distro are you running on your pi?
-
@wered running a multibootpi setup with retropie, raspbian and libreElec. Trying to install this on Raspbian, and i couldn’t get it done with either install method, apt-repo or manual. I’m pretty new so it may be an error on my part
-
Apt method will only work on ubuntu currently, the manual install should work if done correctly though, is it giving you an error when you try to run it?
-
I forget what the exact error was, I’ll check it out when I get home. Does this setup require a GPIO connection? My fan right now just has 5V power and ground wires
-
It requires no gpio, its just a simple bash script that turns on an off the display based on time and temperatures
-
Has anybody here tried attaching a copper heatsink to their pi? I saw a few fellas on youtube doing this but I’m quite unsure if that’s an option I’ll go for.
